Jesper wanted to see offsets at callq sites when doing some performance investigation related to retpolines, so save him some time by providing an 'struct annotation_options' to control where offsets should appear: just on jump targets? That + call instructions? All? This puts in place the logic to show the offsets, now we need to wire this up in the TUI browser (next patch) and on the 'perf annotate --stdio2" interface, where we need a more general mechanism to setup the 'annotation_options' struct from the command line.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
